Review: Excellent Cooler - Perfect size box for a short fishing trip or even lunch and cold drinks on a building site etc. It does its job well and is very sturdy. Plus it’s a good size to sit on.
Review: Cool box, pun intended. - I did like Yeti. But in recent years they have become very overpriced, and even worse, trendy. I wanted a cool box for taking meal preps to work for the week. I think I should have gone a size up, this will take about three or four sensible sized tupperwears if you take the tray out of the top. But the size is convenient, so I'm actually pretty content with it. Now it's gotten a little dirty and beaten up, it has a nice retro character to it. It suits me nicely, does the job, didn't cost much money, and I don't look like a fashion victim. Very happy with this, highly recommended.
